This creates a kind of strange redundancy around the smaller models citadel made - including the most ubiquitous and famous of all fimir. But by the the time the Fimir list was written for Warhammer Armies, all fimir are on 40 x 40mm bases. The rulebook specifies rank and file fimir are on 25 x 25mm only character models are on 40 x 40mm bases. This issue is reflected in the 3rd edition rules.

The well known tale (technically apocryphal, though endorsed by some in the studio at the time) runs as follows ( Graeme Davis, quoted on the Terminally Incoherent blog:) So I thought I'd take it a step further and go for a complete cataloguing of all the different kinds of fimir I have.īecause, famously, the fimir aren't all of a size to be stuck onto 40mm bases. What conclusions can we draw from this? Well, not much really other than that the Nick Bibby fimir are somewhat squatter than many of their more recent counterparts (though Krakon games does have a variety of shapes and sizes of fimir see below) - and that Steve Whitehead's forgeworld fimir, while atmospheric, has armour that isn't particularly in keeping with the classic feel.
